Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anaphylaxis is a severe and potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. It occurs when a person's immune system overreacts to an allergen, such as insect bites, certain foods, or medication. This causes the release of chemicals in the body that can cause breathing difficulties, swelling, and a sudden drop in blood pressure. If left untreated, anaphylaxis can result in death. Treatment for anaphylaxis usually involves the administration of epinephrine (adrenaline) and other medications to manage symptoms.
